Our Method
We follow the BarreAmped method; which takes classic barre moves and amps them up with power, precision, and focused intensity. It is influenced by classical and modern dance (though it is not a dance class) and utilizes a barre to achieve optimal positioning. Insights from Pilates combined with active and orthopedic stretching also balance the method’s unique approach. Founded by international fitness celebrity and former Lotte Berk Method Instructor Suzanne Bowen, BarreAmped is a result of more than 13 years of physiological study and client observations. Setting BarreAmped apart from other barre methods is its focus on work with a neutral spine.
By focusing on small, isolated movements held within deep and challenging postures, BarreAmped is proven to increase metabolism, burn fat, and lengthen tight muscles. Regardless of client and their goals, this electrifying method increases mind-body awareness and clients can expect to leave BarreAmped classes feeling plugged in and calmly energized.
Why form first?
In order to achieve optimal results while staying safe, BarreAmped classes are taught with an emphasis on form and alignment. From the very beginning, instructors are trained to correct and refine clients positionings during the workouts. With a team of experts in the fields of anatomy, biomechanics, and physical therapy, BarreAmped continues to evolve and remain a forerunner in the fitness and movement world.
Who takes BarreAmped?
BarreAmped is for anyone - regardless of age, fitness background, or goals! It can be for someone looking to tone up, someone looking to increase flexibility, or someone simply looking to destress. No dance (or fitness) experience is required!
